Hi everyone. Trying to catch up...hearing the Mission Impossible theme in the back of my head.
@perchie.girl. So sorry to hear that you have the 'Crud' as I call it. Push fluids whatever you do and rest. I agree with everyone who said that you have a compromised immune system and need to take special care. Feel better soon.
Wasps....I went outside the other day and saw something hanging under our motion detector liht by the door. Turned out to be a hornet nest. You know one of those round ball ones that grow to mammoth proportions if left alone. This one was as big as a lemon and occupied by only a pair of hornets that we made go away with the canned 'stream' spray. We found one that was as big as a beach ball when we first moved in, hanging from a tree behind the house. It was abandoned and we managed to shoot it down with a .22 rifle. We kept it until it got nasty but it was an impressive hive.
Had a totally lousey day yesterday. I had to put one of my one eyed roosters down. My last Buff O rooster, Rocky had one good eye thanks to Marek's that he managed to get pecked good and hard by the alpha rooster. Rock was a pain in the a** but funny as all get out. He's the rooster who liked to bite me whenever he got the chance and broke the skin more than once. I'd be ready to shoot him and he would climb up in my lap, chattering his head off and cuddle up to me with his head on my shoulder. Couldn't help but forgive him at that point in time.
I saw him get pecked. It didn't look too bad at the time but when I went out later in the day to check him his good eye was swollen closed and oozing blood.
I set down with him on my lap and sobbed. DH, bless him, put him down for me. I was still sobbing and just couldn't do it. I'd try to hand feed him some bread, his favorite treat. Finally had to put the tidbit in his mouth and he held it there for a long time before he even swallowed it down so I knew there was only outcome for him. We buried him next to Sassy, the blind hen I put down two weeks ago, and who was his favorite hen.
In the mean time, my 4 broody hens are still sitting on something like 18 eggs. Good grief is all I can say. Planning on offering some of the resulting birds to our neighbor. Lord knows I can't keep them all. I wouldn't mind keeping a few hens but little or big, the inn is getting full.
Oh blah dee oh blah da live goes on, son, la la la la life goes on.

No sore throat thank goodness
I learned the ibuprofen Tylenol trick at the er when I had Trench mouth once.... OMG worst pain I EVER had.
I take em both at the same time for leg and knee pain when i cant stand it any more. Matter of fact I am due....
Can you hear the bottles rattling? My legs have been aching for a week.
By the way you can take Tylenol with Alieve as well. Nsaids work on inflammation.... Tylenol works on pain and fever....

But, but, you still need one of these.
My Dad used to shoot them out of the trees with a shotgun
I'll admit .. I have more .. stuff.. on my side of the sink. Normal.. I say.. it's normal for women to have more stuff in the bathroom. Normal, for men to have..more stuff..in the garage. At least ours is smaller stuff. 
Thanks Cynthia Yep I needed that.
I'm down to one bird with Ocular Marek's. She just keeps perking along. I tell her she is too onery and stubborn to croak. Her name is Aguilla, the Eagle. When she was a chick she would sit on top of the water jar and jump down on her brood mates.Just a funny hen.
@perchie.girl, glad you are feeling better today. Unfortunatey there are 9 days to a cold. 3 to get sick, 3 to be sick, 3 getting over it. So hang in there.
I do the Tylenol/aspirin alternating trick when I m sick. Learned it working Pediatrics and before the Rey's syndrome discovery. They would dose kids with high temps every two hours alternating Tylenol with ASA.
I also will take one or two tylenol with a Ultram making an ultraset. It really helps the Ultram kick in better and faster.
